Willow trees have a highly adaptable and extensive root system that can spread widely and deeply, typically extending two to three times the tree's height. Their roots are known for being aggressive and can invade nearby water sources, which helps the tree thrive in moist environments. This root system is primarily fibrous, allowing the tree to stabilize itself in wet soils and resist erosion. Additionally, willows often produce shallow roots that can surface, which may compete with other plants for nutrients and water.
